I'm not sure exactly what it is, mono, ennui, these new super dark chocolate velvet curtains that make my room like a tomb. . . . in any case, I am one of those people that wakes up naturally via sunlight (who doesn't, right?). Only problem is that my internal alarm is set for 9 am or so. Not so great on work days. Therefore, I simply MUST. HAVE. an alarm clock that gradually brightens until it's like standing on the surface of the sun in order to get up on time. Hell, maybe it can even get me to the gym before work.

This clock is pretty sweet. I wish I could upload the picture that actually shows how the laser works, but it acts as trajectory for beams of light in a sense. I don't really get it, but it looks sweet how the lasers actually line...This clock is pretty sweet.

The Biological Clock Alarm Clock has ages instead of hours, which start to turn into a red, frantic blur around 40. Sadly, it works like a regular alarm clock; you can't set the alarm to go if in, say, 10 years.
A great Roy Lichtenstein cover for the dial. The box has some great quotes on it (check the pic!)
$17. Perhaps a great gag gift for good friends.

The light bulb shaped alarm clock not only adds some humor to your morning grind but might actually offer you one more reason to let go of your iPhone and blackberry. Time to put down your smart phone people, here’s an alarm clock that’s pretty enough to use!
Watt Time is constructed out of high gloss, hard plastic allowing the digital time display to shine through the bulb’s outer wall. A bright blue LED display illuminates the time and date and an easily accessible snooze button located on top of the bulb’s socket end, makes it possible for you to get those “5 more minutes” you always need. If the sound is not enough to wake you, you have the option of setting the bulb to illuminate when your alarm goes off as well.
Fear not, we’ve placed all set buttons discretely on the back of the bulb so as not to disturb the overall simplicity and beauty of the design.

My troubles with waking up are endless and consistently unresolved. Adding more alarm clocks is really the only viable option. And, i'm really appreciating the classic, vintage look, feel and sound this one has going for it.
